'I Hope You Dance'

~Lee Ann Womack

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder

Get your fill to eat

But always keep that hunger

May you never take one single breath for granted.

God forbid love ever leave you empty handed

I hope you still feel small

When you stand beside the ocaean

Whenever one door closes,

I hope one more opens.

Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance.

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance...

I hope you dance...

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance

Never settle for the path of least resistance

Living might mean taking chances

But they're worth taking

Lovin' might be a mistake

But it's worth making.

Don't let some hell bent heart

Leave you bitter

 When you come close to selling out

Reconsider

Give the heavens above more

Than jsut a passing glance.

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance...

I hope you dance...

I hope you dance...

I hope you dance...

I hope you still feel small

When you stand beside the ocean

Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens

Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance.

And when you get the choice

To sit it out or dance...

I hope you dance...

I hope you dance...

I hope you dance...

Song of the Week: Meredith Brooks - Bitch

"I'm a bitch, I'm a lover

I'm a child, I'm a mother

I'm a sinner, I'm a saint

I do not feel ashamed"

What a powerful mantra! Are you comfortable with your inner bitch? Imagine how powerful it would be to accept this part of you. We all have one. You get to glimpse her when someone cuts you off in traffic or someone's mistreating one of your children. Another time she might appear is when you finally get fed up that someone's wasting your time or misuisng your resources. Envision that you're supervising the remodel of your dream kitchen and the contractor keeps delaying the job and giving you the run around. Do you think it would be helpful if you embraced your inner bitch and demanded that he get the job done?

Are there things that you have done that you're not exactly proud of? No one is perfect. Consider how freeing it would be to simply forgive yourself of these things. Make a list of everything that you have ever done that you feel ashamed of. Writing it down gets it out of your head and dissipates the energy around it. Then, actively forgive yourself for each item. Do this nightly for a minimum of 21 nights. In the end, you will feel freer and lighter.

Dream Big: Song of the Week

When I heard this song today, I knew I had to share it with you. Do you have a dream? Is it a big dream? How big is big, really? Oprah had a dream of being able to see a few trees out of her kitchen window. Now, in just one of her homes, there are so many trees that she can't number them. Whatever your dream is, God has something bigger planned for you. You have to do your part, though. As Jazmine says in this song, "...if I don't take the chance, I won't ever get out..." If you don't take action on your dream, you'll never realize it.

I want to take this time to share part of my dream with you. By this time next year, I intend to be fully self-employed as a Divine Toolkit (more to come on this) and completely unemployable. My children are in attendance at First Class Montessori and I'm happily partnered with my divine right mate... Well, I said part, not all. It gets bigger than that.

How big is YOUR dream?
